thank you, thank you, thank you to all who supported, volunteered and shopped at this year’s sale!
with christmas shoppers being hesitant this season, we didn’t know what to expect at this year’s fair trade bazaar. but we were pleasantly surprised to find that because of where we are, people are beginning to ask more questions about the way we spend money and consequently seeing that making your dollars go further means investing in people and not just consumerism. that being said, we doubled last year’s one day sale and met our ambitious goal of $12K. translation: a whole year’s living wage for 6 artisan families.
we look forward to continuing to explore the possibilities for fair trade in naperville. and we would be remiss if we didn’t say thank you to our gracious and enthusiastic host: Naperville Christian Church. alone, we could not do this. but together we have made a difference in people’s lives and brought more hope to the holiday.
